OSU_Matthew posted:Would knobbly tires affect countersteering in any way? Perhaps it's just my relative inexperience or adjustment to a new bike, but for some reason my KLR 650 doesn't naturally seem to countersteer on turns like my nighthawk does. Maybe it's just my perception, but when I turn >15 mph, the front tire seems to want to turn into the direction I'm going instead of away, and I was wondering if that was related to the knobbly tires on the bike, the bike itself, or just plain user error? It's the riding position, fork rake, and wide bars. Manually countersteer and I guarantee it'll turn like it's supposed to.
